Rule of law means unjust 'luck' will run out

The trial of Sun Xiaoguo by the High People's Court of Yunnan province, which began on Monday, has grabbed the public's attention.

Sun was originally sentenced to death in February 1998 when he was found guilty of multiple rapes and intentionally inflicting injury upon others.

However, the same court changed the sentence to a death sentence with reprieve in a retrial six months later.
